Welcome

 You are about to join an act of worship, the work of the people of God.

 Because God chose to become human in Jesus Christ, our human  concerns are important. Because God is love, God wants to shed the  light of truth upon our lives and to draw us into that love, enrich us with  understanding, encourage us through hope, and empower us to serve  others. Because God acts through our corporate, as well as our private  lives, each of us takes an active part in hearing the lessons, singing the  hymns, reciting the prayers, and sharing the Communion.

 You are invited to discover the wonder and mystery of existence, in  which all things and all beings are seen to be connected, even as the  bread and wine, received in Communion, unite us both with Christ and  one another. Welcome! Come as you are and leave closer to what our  loving God intends you to be.
